These moist, sweet, raspberry muffins have the most perfect, crunchy streusel topping. Bake some up for the one you love or just eat them all yourself!
I have always loved sweets, but it wasn’t until my senior year of high school that I really got into baking. My best friend and I actually filmed a cooking show in my kitchen once because we loved baking so much (no, you cannot see it, it was awful).
When I was in college I took an introductory cooking class, and that’s where I first tasted this recipe. Unfortunately, when our group made these delicious muffins, we also had to share them with the whole class. In other words, I only got half of a muffin and was left completely unsatisfied.
Luckily the recipe was super simple and I already had all the ingredients at home, so I was able to go make some just for me after class was over. Needless to say, this recipe was one of the few that made it into my recipe book after the class was over. And also one of the only recipes I replicated as soon as class was over. It’s that good.
I thought they would be perfect to share with you since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! Raspberries are red/pink so that works, right? If not, just make them anyway and after tasting them, you’ll agree they’re perfect for Valentine’s Day (and every other day of the year because they are that good).
After eating about three (I’m not going to definitively state how many I immediately ate) I thought about channeling Red Riding Hood and packing them up in a basket to share. Instead, I ate another one. Don’t judge. Eventually I did go take some to friends, but I for sure saved some for me. So just go bake some of your own. They take less than an hour and you’ll be stuffing your face with raspberry muffins, too.

- Bake at 375 for 25 to 30 minutes.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Yummy! These look amazing! I love recipes that are made up of things everybody has in their pantry. I’d only have to pick up frozen raspberries at the store for these!
The best, right!? And in the summer, fresh raspberries would be so perfect for them!!
Delicious!!!!!
Thanks! I certainly think so!
They look delicious! I’m always thankful when there is a simple recipe with ingredients have or can buy in NZ. I think the simple recipes usually taste better too 🙂
Thanks, Nina! It is definitely better when recipes use simple ingredients, especially because specialty ingredients can be so pricey and you only use them once!
These look so good! I am not a big fan of baking but I am a big fan of eating baked treats, haha! I want to learn and enjoy baking and these look fairly easy to make. Thank you Chelsea for the recipe!
They are! I hope you get a chance to try them because they are so good!
I love how simple this recipe is and how tasty the muffins look! I’m trying to think if I’ve ever had raspberry muffins…I don’t think I have!! I love that you shared one of your “keeper” recipes, those are always the best and hardest to find.
Thanks! Those are by far the best. I have my own little recipe binder with all my favorite tried-and-true recipes printed out. It’s so much easier to have recipes that way than looking online every single time!
I love raspberry – these looks great!
If you love raspberry you’ll love these!! Thanks, Katie!
